Compact Lowboy, Big‑Enough Capacity

The lowboy profile (~32‑1/4″ tall) fits tight mechanical rooms and under‑counter spaces while still providing a generous 51‑gallon storage volume for light‑commercial draws.

Steady, Predictable Recovery

Dual 4.5 kW elements (non‑simultaneous) deliver roughly 18.5 gallons per hour at a 100°F rise—ideal for back‑to‑back handwashing, prep, and cleanup without long wait times.

Durable Glass‑Lined Protection

A rugged glass‑lined steel tank with a sacrificial anode helps resist corrosion, reducing maintenance and extending service life in everyday commercial settings.

Installer‑Friendly Wiring & Controls

A factory terminal block speeds connection, and surface‑mount thermostats include a manual reset high‑limit for added safety. Field wiring options vary by model—always follow the series wiring diagram.

Code‑Smart Efficiency

Foam insulation helps limit standby heat loss. The Patriot™ lowboy is UL/CSA listed and meets DOE and ASHRAE/IES 90.1 standby requirements for commercial installations.
